Anavar (oxandrolone) is not very toxic,
not very androgenic, mildly anabolic, and pretty mild on the body's HPTA
(Hypothalamic-Testicular-Pituitary-Axis). Those are its 4 major points,
and I'd like to examine each one a bit further; as usual, gym-rumors
and internet conjecture has made this steroid the subject of many
misconceptions.

Due to its being a mild steroid in every sense of the
word, high amounts of Anavar dosage are needed. It binds reasonably well
to the AR, but pretty high doses are still needed and I would never
suggest doing less than 20mgs/day. In fact, 20-80mgs are needed to start
halting AIDS related wasting(1) and recovering weight for burn victims
(2) so that's the range I'd recommend keeping your dosages in concerning
this compound. Personally, I'd use 100mgs/day if I were ever going to
try this stuff. Any less than this amount (20-100mgs) would be a waste.
For women, however, I think 2.5-10mgs/day would suffice. Virilation is
not a concern with this compound, as it is only very mildly androgenic
(3). Water retention is also virtually nil with it.

Although Anavar is an oral steroid, and has been
alpha-alkylated to survive oral ingestion and the first pass through the
liver, it's still relatively mild in that respect too..., the unique
chemical configuration of oxandrolone both confers a resistance to liver
metabolism as well as noticable anabolic activity. It would also appear
that Anavar appears not to exhibit the serious hepatotoxic effects
(jaundice, cholestatic hepatitis, peliosis hepatis, hyperplasias and
neoplasms) typically attributed to the C17alpha-alkylated AASs. (17)
Anavar has even been used successfully in some studies to heal cutaneous
wounds (7), or to improve respiratory function (18). Both of these
novel properties could make it a good choice for in-season use for
boxers, Mixed Martial Arts competitors, and other such athletes.

Now here's some interesting stuff for anyone interested
primarily in the fat loss properties of this stuff: Anavar may be what
we'd call a "fat-burning steroid". Abdominal and visceral fat were both
reduced in one study when subjects in the low/normal natural
testosterone range used anavar (4). In another study, appendicular,
total, and trunk fat were all reduced with a relatively small dose of
20mgs/day (8), and no exercise. In addition, weight gained with anavar
may be nearly permanent too. It might not be much, but you'll stand a
good chance of keeping most of it. In one study, subjects maintained
their weight (re)gains from anavar for at least 6 months after cessation
(2)! Concomitantly, in another study, Twelve weeks after discontinuing
oxandrolone, 83% of the reductions in total, trunk, and extremity fat
were also sustained (8)! If you're regaining weight, Anavar will give
you nearly permanent gains, and if you are trying to lose fat (and you
keep your diet in check), the fat lost with Anavar is basically looks to
be nearly permanent. Check this chart out:
